Abstract (en)

There is provided a control device for an electric power steering device, which determines an estimate of a steering angle instead of using an angle sensor when any abnormality is detected in the angle sensor to perform steering angle control using the determined estimate of the steering angle. When it is determined that the detected steering angle is normal based on a steering angle abnormality determination signal Flg_¸h, a steering angle calculating section 201 outputs a steering-wheel angle ¸h as an actual steering angle ¸r, while when it is determined that the detected steering angle is abnormal, the steering angle calculating section 201 determines and outputs an estimate ¸r of an actual steering angle using a past value Z¸r of the actual steering angle under normal conditions, a motor relative angle ”¸m, and a relative twist angle ”¸ of a torsion bar.
